| Quote: C for Cuckoo "If Connor had pace he'd be lighting up the NRL right now. We get to enjoy watching him play because he isn't the complete player, not in spite of.
On paper he'd make a great 6. But we've seen him play at 6 and it wasn't great. I'd rather have him as a centre than a 6 because he is devastating from there. But he wants to be a fullback and at 1 he is our greatest attacking threat since ... in a long time.
So we have who we have and now need to build a team that complents who Jake is and not who we wish he was. He is a once in a generation talent and with one or two key signings we could have a real shot at the title in the next few years.'"
Connor wanted to be a six
Its Hodgson who wants him at full back
Like you i always liked him at centre.He also was always a threat collecting or knocking back high kicks to his wing but we have moved away from only having this tactic since Sneyd went.
Think Hodgson may have to look at moving Connor next season into the halves to partner Trueman and if we sign a Field/French type full back who is able to back up line breaks we wont be far away from being a very good hard to beat team. |

You sure about that?
My understanding is that it was Connor’s wish to play full back and Hodgson obliged.
Now it would be a dream to have a full back with the pace of French and move Jake back to the halves. |

My memory 
Would have sworn it was the other way round but I have found a hull live report where he says he wants to be a 6. |

| Quote: bonaire "i can think of several on here who poo pooed anything but Friday night games
Sunday still has to be the best day for me but the club have trialed Saturday afternoons now with success so i guess we will see a mixture of Saturday and Sunday matches.
Much better of course for away supporters when travelling to Hull'"
Well I'm of the opposite opinion, when I looked at the fixtures for this season, there was ONE home game on a Friday Night. Loads of Saturday and some Sunday games. Needless to say I didn't bother with a pass again. |

Me too. First season without a pass for about 20 years, although I've still been to a few games. |

I like the Saturday games. The train on a Friday from Manchester used to get me in at 1940 if it was on time. Not ideal.
That's purely selfish though.The real test will be the crowd figures. They look good currently but let's see what the summer holidays bring.
I got a pass this season just because I'm working in Hull more because of lockdown. Not sure I'll keep it when I'm back to missing Thursday night games (and the first five minutes of Friday nights).

He'd get in every team in the league. Either at 1,3,4,6 or 7.
Let's just enjoy him while we've got him

Thank goodness for the Tongans beating the Aussies and the Tongan fans in general who were absolutely amazing and made Eden Park my favourite non FC experience ever! |
